To Build A House - Cosima

Written by：Cosima Ehni/Matt Wiggins

While you were gone I

Washed all the windows

So I could get a better view

Of your return

While you were gone I

Changed all the bed sheets

So I could lie without the anger

As I turned

I reset the clocks so I

Could forgive you for being late

But the moment I stop is the moment

You tell me to have some faith

To build a house on quicksand

That's what you're asking me to do

To give you the heart you've broken

How can that feel alright to you

In the end

I let the windows get dirty

I couldn't stand to see your absence

Through the glass

And in the end I learnt to

Sleep with the light off

So tired from giving space

To shadows of the past

I reset the clocks so I

Could forgive you for being late

But the moment I stop is the moment

You tell me to have some faith

To build a house on quicksand

That's what you're asking me to do

To give you the heart you've broken

How can that feel alright to you

Do I wait for you

How can that feel alright

Does that comfort you

How can that feel alright

Do I see it through

How can that feel alright

Or do I walk on by

How can that feel alright

Can I flick a switch

How can that feel alright

And forget your name

How can that feel alright

Do I crawl right back

How can that feel alright

When I know

That there's no safety in your home

To build a house on quicksand

That's what you're asking me to do

How can that feel alright

To give you the heart that you've broken

How can that feel alright to you

How can that feel alright

How can that feel alright

How can that feel alright to you
